2. Description of the Related Art Generally, in an elevator system, when a passenger arrives at a landing, the passenger pushes a landing button installed at the landing to generate a landing call, and an elevator car (hereinafter referred to as a "car device" or (Simply called a "car") is called to the boarding floor where passengers await. Then, after the car arrives at the boarding floor, the passenger gets into the car, designates the destination floor by pressing the destination floor button in the car, and receives the service.

Further, it has been conventionally known that if a hall call button for an elevator is installed in front of an elevator hall, a call is generated earlier and the waiting time is shortened.

For example, in the conventional device disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 61-41822, the arrival time of the car at the hall and the arrival time of the passenger are compared and the car is arranged so that the car arrives at the hall after the arrival of the passenger. By allocating, waiting time has been shortened.

1).

If it is determined in step S41 that the car has arrived (that is, YES), then the passenger arrival time estimated value t (s) is compared with the waiting processing threshold TH, and t (s) is compared. <TH is determined (step S42).

In step S42, t (s) <TH
If it is determined to be YES, a standby control enable signal for enabling the standby control process is output (step S
43), the processing routine of FIG. 4 is terminated, and t (s) ≧ TH
If it is determined to be NO (that is, NO), the processing routine of FIG. 4 is terminated without executing step S43.

When the passenger arrival time estimated value t (s) is given by the probability density function φ (t), step S4

On the other hand, if it is determined that the car has not arrived (that is, NO) in the car arrival determination process (step S41) to the call generation floor, subsequently, the passenger is called to the specific floor where the passenger is detected. It is determined whether or not has occurred (step S44).

If it is determined in step S44 that a call is occurring on the specific floor (that is, YES),
Immediately after the processing routine of FIG. 4 is terminated and it is determined that the call is not generated (that is, NO), the advance call generation effective signal for enabling the advance call generation is output (step S45), The processing routine of FIG. 4 is terminated.

The advance call generation valid signal and the standby control valid signal thus generated from the advance call management unit 61 are input to the advance call generation unit 62 and the car standby control unit 63. Hereinafter, the advance call generation unit 62 generates a advance call in response to the advance call generation valid signal, and the car standby processing unit 63.

FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing a second embodiment of the present invention, in which the same parts as those described above (see FIGS. 1 to 3) are designated by the same reference numerals or the reference numerals are followed by “A”. Therefore, detailed description will be omitted.

In FIG. 5, the passenger arrival time estimation section 5A is provided with a passenger arrival time memory learning section 7.

-Stored for each L, and each passenger detection device 41-1 to 41-
The reference walking speed vp (s) or the reference walking time tb (s) at the position L is learned.

There are several conceivable learning methods, and for example, the learning can be performed by the following equation (5).

[0068]

[Equation 5]

However, in equation (5), vp (s)
(New) is the reference walking speed after learning, vp (s) (ol
d) is the walking speed before learning. Also, vp (s) (n

Further, χ is an inertia coefficient and δ is a learning coefficient, and the walking speed vp (s) (old) before learning, respectively.
Alternatively, it corresponds to the weighting coefficient of the walking speed vp (s) (now) at the time of learning.

Further, when the probability density function of the reference walking speed vp (s) and the reference walking time tb is given, each probability density function θ (vp (s)) or φ (t
(S)) will be learned.

In this way, the learning result obtained by the passenger arrival time memory learning unit 7 is input to the passenger arrival time estimation unit 5A and used for the calculation of the passenger arrival time estimated value from the next time onward.

In the advance call processing unit 6A, the advance call managing unit 61A includes, in addition to the advance call generating unit 62, the car standby control unit 63 and the advance call reprocessing means 64,
An allocation review unit 65 is provided.

Reference numeral 66 denotes an allocation process management unit associated with the advance call generation unit 62 and the allocation review unit 65. The allocation process management unit 66 includes a car arrival time prediction calculation unit 67, an arrival time difference prediction unit 68, and an allocation calculation unit. 69 is provided.

The advance call generation unit 62 includes the advance call management unit 6

The allocation reviewing unit 65 uses the advance call management unit 61.
In response to the advance call registration status from A, it is periodically judged whether or not the allocation needs to be reviewed. If the allocation needs to be reviewed, a call allocation command is output to the allocation processing management unit 66 so that the current allocation is performed. Cancel the assignment signal of the cage (assigned cage device).

FIG. 6 is a flow chart showing the determination algorithm by the allocation reviewing unit 65. In FIG. 6, first, a variable ud indicating the direction of advance call (UP or DOWN) is initially set to “UP (up)” (step S6).
1) The variable fL indicating the floor of the advance call is initialized to "1" (step S62).

Subsequently, it is determined whether or not a pre-call in the ud direction is registered on the fL floor (step S63), and if it is determined that it is not registered (that is, NO), step S71 (described later). If it is determined that the variable is registered (that is, YES), the variable i is initialized to "1" and the variable K is initialized to "0" (step S6).
4).

The variable i is the passenger detection device 41-
Passenger detection device 41-s + 1 detected in s and adjacent
The pre-call for passengers not detected at is the index for the "i-th passenger" being registered. Also,
The variable K is the “number of passengers requiring review” used for the comparison determination in step S69 (described later).

Next, following the initialization step S64, the variable i is compared with the maximum value J (s) of the number of passengers, and i <J
It is determined whether or not (s) +1 is satisfied, and it is determined whether or not the review determination processing (step S66) for all variables i is incomplete (step S65).

In step S65, i ≧ J (s) +
If it is determined to be 1 (that is, NO), the process proceeds to step S69, and if it is determined that i <J (s) +1 (that is, YES), then it is determined whether or not it is necessary to review the allocation for the i-th passenger. The determination is made (step S66).

In the assignment review / determination process in step S66, for example, there is a relatively long time until the i-th passenger arrives at the specific landing, and the estimated arrival time of the car device and the estimated arrival time of the passenger are calculated. It is executed when the difference is large. In step S66, for example, the following condition determination is executed.

[0083]   if (t (s, i) -u (i)> THp) and   (| Τ-t (s, i) + u (i) |> THc) then   "Review allocation"   else   "Do not review quotas"

However, in the above condition judgment expression, t
(S, i) is the passenger arrival time estimated value of the "i-th passenger" for which the advance call regarding the passenger detected by the passenger detection device 41-s and not detected by the passenger detection device 41-s + 1 is being registered. .

U (i) is the elapsed time since the "i-th passenger" was detected by the passenger detection device 41s, T (t)
Hp is the estimated passenger arrival time t in the assignment review judgment
It is a threshold for (s, i).

Further, τ is a predicted value of the time required for the car device to arrive in the ud direction on the fL floor (car arrival time predicted value), and the car device and the hall call devices 2-1 to 2-1.
2-M is calculated based on the state.

Furthermore, THc is the predicted value τ of the car arrival time.
And a passenger arrival time estimated value t (s, i).

If it is determined in step S66 that at least one of the above condition determination expressions is not satisfied (ie, NO), the variable i is incremented (step S66).
67), and returns to step S65.

If it is determined that both of the above condition determination expressions are satisfied (that is, YES), the variable K is incremented (step S68), and the process returns to step S65 via step S67.

On the other hand, in step S65, i ≧ J
If it is determined that (s) +1 (that is, NO), the variable i
Since all review judgment processing for
The variable K corresponding to the revised number of passengers is compared with the threshold value THK relating to the variable K to determine whether K> THK is satisfied (step S69).

If it is determined in step S69 that K> THK (that is, YES), the allocation review signal in the fL floor ud direction is validated (step S70), and the process proceeds to the next step S71, where K ≦ THK (that is, If it is determined to be NO), the process immediately proceeds to step S71.

In step S71, it is determined whether or not the variable fL indicating the floor of the advance call has reached the uppermost floor, and it is determined whether the allocation review determination processing for all floors has been completed.

If it is determined that fL <top floor (that is, NO), the allocation review determination processing for all floors has not been completed, so the variable fL is incremented (step S72), and step S63. Return to.

If it is determined in step S71 that fL = top floor (that is, YES), then it is determined whether or not the variable ud indicating the direction of the advance call is "DOWN". It is determined whether or not the allocation review determination process has been performed for both (step S73).

If it is determined in step S73 that ud = UP (that is, NO), the downward direction determination process is incomplete, so the direction variable ud is changed and set to "DOWN" (step S74), and step S62 is performed.
